| CHICAGO, April 15.-'rhe wheat market wal
| in highly nervous condition to-day. The inn
| pending fear of a corner in May delivery caused
| a lot OF small shorts to run to cover and as G
result May advanced 1850 to S614c, which was
| the top price for the day. The market eased of
| to S51zc at the close. Speculative offerings were
very Hight during the entire session, and the ad
vance was apparently not urged by the bull
| clique, which Is supposed to be in complete con
| troll of the market. Outside influences appeared
| to have no bearing wlRtever on the course OF
| values Receipts continue to be free, but stor
| age room is nearly all filed, and this confirms
| the belief that a corner Is among the possibili
| ties Parties who had bought at other points
| notably st. Louis, and sold here were covering
freely, together with an urgent call from otheI
| parties The aggregate receipts al eleven points
| were 1876, 900 bushels, showing falling of. The
| export movement at seaboard was fair, clear
ings from three points being $4,000 bushels
The advance In June and July deliveries wat
| nearly equal to that in May. There was a fail
| trade in corn and the feeling was firmer, largely
due to the strength in wheat Receipts were
| light, which also tended 20 impart strength Il
! the market. Prices advanced 1sc and closed fol
the day &c higher than yesterday. Oats ranged
SIC higher early, but reacted and closed at about
| Yesterdays figures. There was little more doing
| In mess pork and prices were not quite so strong
| A few sales were made at the pc decline. Larc
| was firmer but closed at yesterdays closing
| prices Short ribs were 5Q1l0c higher
